View Full Version : Creating Player-Flyable Vehicles

I've downloaded quite a few CFS2 player flyable vehicles from various sites over the years but I've always wanted to create one myself - my attempts to do so have not ended well and usually cause CFS2 to crash.

After downloading the CFO Weather app a while back I had an idea to take the stock CFS1 Wespe Motorized Gun and convert it for player use, using the CFO Weather bomb trainer to zero in artillery strikes. Unfortunately, all the available player-flyable vehicles use rocket-based ammunition which does not work with the bomb trainer.

I'm no programmer but I am familiar with the regular tweak or changes to CFS2 DP's and the like, but I'm stumped on how to make this work.

Hopefully somebody could shed some light or point me in a direction on how I would/should:
1. Create or transfer an air file for the vehicle
2. Create or transfer a DP file for the vehicle
3. Find or create a bomb-based weapon that could work with the CFO Weather bomb trainer

Thanks! :salute:
